We find this a fun place to go with quality food. Our entire family is always full when we leave. The environment varies to loud and fun to just a normal sit down dining experience...mostly depending on the crowd. We've always had great service & yummy food.

Pros:

Fun, Filling, Good Value, Great Milkshakes

Cons:

A bit out of the way unless you are staying on that side of Walt Disney World

Any meal that includes entertainment I enjoy and Whispering Canyon Cafe is one of them. They also give you option to opt out of the fun. The cast members are amazing and attentive and the food is pretty good. They used to have one of my favorite salads but it has left the menu. The pulled pork and BBQ items are delicious.

Pros:

Good option for a break from MK to take a boat ride, check out the amazing WL and partake in some food and fun Good for those that like the all you can eat meals

Cons:

Location - if you are not staying at the WL it could take time to get there. Menu limited unless you like all you can eat

We ate here for the first time on our recent trip while staying at Wilderness Lodge. I liked the fun, family atmosphere especially for the kids. Our waitress was very funny and personable. We all ordered the skillet and it was very tasty, but it took a while to get more helpings and they initially forgot to bring out the side of mac and cheese my daughter ordered. I would definitely go back if we were staying at Wilderness Lodge again, but I don't know that I would make a special trip for it.

Pros:

fun, family friendly atmosphere good food

Cons:

a little chaotic

This is my kids favorite non-character dining at Disney. They entertain you as you eat family style and there are so many fun things you can have the kids do such as ask for ketchup, say your straw is not long enough, wear a shirt from a place outside Disney. The kids stay entertained (and the adults). The food is good and they also accommodated my kids allergies, even though it was family style.

Pros:

Entertaining Fun for kids Different then other dining options at Disney, they are loud, have kids get up and dance, etc.

Cons:

We waited awhile even though we had reservations

Service was attentive and excellent. The refillable milkshakes very enjoyed by the kids. Most of the table ordered the canyon skillet which was very plentiful and tasty. Our teenage son was quite full. We took our desserts to go because we were too full. Entertainment in the restaurant was an added plus-our 3 year old enjoyed the horse sticks through the restaurant and our older kids enjoyed a good laugh with the ketchup comedy. Overall a great meal experience.

Pros:

food/service

Cons:

none

My friend and I had lunch here and I was super excited for her because it was her first trip to WDW. I thought it would be a great place to break her in so we ate here for our first meal of the trip. While the food was better than expected, the service was not. We were seated way back in a corner by the kitchen away from all of the antics so she never even noticed anything fun was going on behind her. Not once did our waiter bother to play along so pretty much it was just a restaurant with decent food. This seems to happen to me both here and at 50's Prime Time every time I go. The bad part was I told them at the check in desk that I had a first time visitor with me and asked if we could please get a server that was really into it. I'm starting to think that when you ask, they are deliberately sticking you with the worst waiter they have. He was so soft spoken that we could barely hear him and he seemed nervous like he'd never waited a table a day in his life. Oh well. Maybe it's because we never have children with us. Hopefully when I take my new niece next year we will get a different response.

Pros:

tasty food, fun atmosphere

Cons:

some waiters just will not play along!

The family style skillet meal was excellent. My family of 4 has 4 totally different food tastes but everyone ate and enjoyed the skillet meal. There is something for everyone and no one leaves hungry. The all you can drink shakes needs some improvement...not good at all!

If you're going here for a quite meal, go somewhere else. We acutally had a tame waitress that didn't get caught up in all of the hype, so we go to watch and enjoy everything going on instead of participating.

Pros:

Plenty of great food, fun atmosphere

Cons:

All you can drink shakes

We've been here several times. The food is always great!
We were one of the first reservations upon the opening of the restaurant for dinner, so our wait was minimal. I was a little surprised, given our seating right at opening, that we were still put in the "back" location of the restaurant. It is a great table, right beside a fireplace, but when there are activities taking place in the big dining area, you do feel a little "left out". This has happened to us before and I am quite sure it is because we were a table of two adults. But at any rate - this isn't really a complaint. If I had really wanted to fuss about it, I believe they would have moved us.
Our server Suzan was sweet and nice. She was really great and provided excellent service. We were so happy with our food and left absolutely stuffed!!!
Never have been sorry that we selected this as one of our meals.

Pros:

plenty of yummy food

Cons:

you can get a 'less fun' table location
